I didn't use Windows for more than a decade, but I don't remember a mess with the standard dialogs in it. Maybe with the Qt-based applications, which brings their crap everywhere.
Neomutt is not a GUI mail client, and from usual distributives-oob clients, kMail seems to be most performant.
DPI scaling works terribly everywhere in Linux if you have more than one monitor with different DPI, none of the most popular distributives has it fixed.
I understand you wanna say that Linux can be usable on a desktop with a jointer and a file, but my talk about usual people and what is wrong in it from their PoV. I love Linux kernel and how it behaves on servers, but it is a still crappy non-uniform zoo on desktops. Some strokes of light and unifying can be seen with the systemd, but it's not related to GUI yet, and even there it has some strong integration counterforces involved. Linux needs systemd for GUI.

For me it's still total immaturity everywhere in GUI and consumer hardware. The most performant mail client, kMail, cashes too much, when it has more than ten thousand of emails its performance is very bad it's preferences are somewhat crazy. Still a mess with DPI scaling. Still a mess with the mix of different KDE/Gnome/Qt styled applications everywhere. None of the modern distributions can turn off my monitor by DDC when entering dark mode after computer inactivity. I'l kee my hackintosh as long as i can, it handles hardware much more better than any other OS.

Apple starting to be full of annoying bugs, that's very disappointing. My iCloud photos stop to sync completely and can't be re-enabled in any way. That's pity.

That what I mean above, most people don't speak "modern Ukrainian". Even the language itself drastically changed on TV just in years.

Nope. If they acknowledge you've been on 'occupied' territories, they will reject entry and prohibit it for 3-5 years.

It's a little difficult to be aloner these times, need to force yourself to continue learning modern trends, because often your clients doesn't care about raising of your skill levels. But it's still possible.

Maybe in US but not in eastern Europe. Speed limits and road restrictions are significantly hardened last two decades, as well as casualties per capita.

That's wrong. Perpendicularly opposite arguments for the same questions are in the well-crowded cities in exUSSR eastern europe. It's just a result of masses controlling. By the fear.

What's the second image with the cars photograph proofs? Building on the left is of another form, cars on photo stays much closer - this can be seen by the nearly perpendicular wire between pillars nearly those cars, definitely not two buildings distance.

Re:How low can you go? Running Ubuntu Desktop on a 2GB Raspberry Pi 4
on Tuesday January 11, 2022 @06:22PM (#29899912)
What's going on to Linux? I remember my first linux installs, that was some Fedora 5 in 2007 and then Ubuntu, don't remember exact version. They worked blazingly fast comparing to WinXP. They had shiny cool bells and whistles everywhere: wobbling windows, rotating cube desktops, windows transparency by mouse wheel, etc etc. I could play Windows game faster than in windows via Wine. And all that was on a crappy cheap PC with ~512 Mb of RAM and chipset built-in video. Now I have a monster PC with two Xeon E5 v4 CPUs, 64 GBs RAM and an RX590. Gnome is lagging and has no more those bells and whistles. On the same FHD monitor. Now I prefer hackintosh.

Easy to handle, just use the rules of that time — single domain for single IP. Not applicable to v6 and dyndnses, but something like this can solve it.
